INVESTIGATE 6 NEW LEAD SOURCES FOR YOUR REAL ESTATE BUSINESS LEON MCKENZIE
Home cleaning companies are a good source of real estate leads because they will help you discover which
homes may possibly be up for sale before the sign or listing goes up. This gives you the time to contact the
homeowners and offer to either represent them or to buy the property off them quickly.
So, the next time you come across a professional home cleaning company in your area, pay them a visit, and
start talking to the relevant parties. Leave your business card too. The casual chats you initiate may end up
leading to a sale or two for you.
3. Property Managers
Some homeowners are absentee landlords/ landladies. They want all the benefits of leasing out their properties
without the headaches. For that reason, they hire property managers to manage their additional homes.
If you are a realtor or real estate investor, then property managers are good professionals to have in your
corner – especially if you live in an area with lots of investment proprties. At some point, some of the
homeowners will get tired of owning the additional properties and may end up selling them to recover their
monies.
If you did your due diligence and established a good relationship with the property managers in your locale,
when their clients need to sell their homes, you will be the first person to know. This will ensure that you get
your pick of prime properties that will enable you to get the best value for your money.
4. Consumer Loan Companies
When people are denied loans by banks, they tend to go for loans from consumer loan companies. In such
cases, it is safe to assume that the clients of these companies have a high debt load, poor credit, and are
possibly in financial distress. This assumption isn’t farfetched at all. After all, according to the 2015 NerdWallet
survey, the average American household has a debt of $130,922!
